These colonists were sensible
Like the Israelites of old they sent
out their forerunners to survey the
promised land. The journey was
long. The sage brush in winter
looked anything but inviting. But
that was not all. Arrived in town
they met the croakers.

These miserable creatures are of
two species. The one a vain en-

the soil will produce anything from
artichokes to cocoanuts. The other
is croaker for revenue only. As

than the enthusiastic croaker, soon
has the unsuspecting immigrant
scared out.
~
The proper thing to do when an
immigrant arrives is to meet him
more than half way and in friend
ly spirit. Tell him just what the
country is: That there is good
productive land here; that it takes
money and hard work to develop
it; that plenty of good drinking
water can be obtained; that water
for irrigation can be obtained; that
there is good market for all pro-
ducts; that we have good churches
and school houses; that acts of law
lessness are very uncommon; that
the climate is healthy-although
many are not here for their health;
and, when a man does evince de-
sire to build do not put such price
on building lot as would buy
corner lot in Chicago.
-
Two or three families of the Ger
mans are now here and are at work
on their claims. Have got in crops
and will realize well on their first
years work. How different from
the pioneers of other states-they
were satisfied with a small return
in ten years. Any man taking up
a sage brush farm, and devoting one
half the energy toward improving
it that is required on an Iowa or
Nebraska farm in five years, will be |
Independent.
~
They will come. All the croak-
IT'S in the world cannot keep them
pack. Let our watchword be |
Death to the croakers!" Fall up
IN them! Smite them hip and
highl Sweep them from the face

AChapter on sneezing.

The saw associated with the act of
sneezing, in this and other countries,
may be traced back to the most remote
per cd.
In the classic ages OF Greece and
Rome We read of the lucky sneeze of
Telemachrs, and of Aristotle's remark
that people C1nsider a sneeze Us divine,
but I { q ccLgh.
On r"0r-us Of ~sneezinc bci3" 1'cmci
lucky, it has always been customary to
salute the sneezer, q custom which the
Ancient Greeks claimed to have derived
from Prometheus, who stole celestial
FIRE to animate his newly-msde figure
of clay. Tradition says that as fire
permeated its frame the creature sneezed,
which caused Prometheus to invoke
blessings upon it.
At any rate, the practice Of s~alutation
on sneezing dates from the earliest
times, and it is interesting TO find a SUI
perstition of this kind which may be
looked on as a curiosity of primitive
civilization still existing. When child
sneezes grandmothers cry: "God help
You !"
To sneeze three times before break
fast is a pledge that n will soon re-
ceive q present of some kind. The
sneezing OF q cat is considered an evil
omen, it being q sign that the family
will have colds.
According to a Scotch superstition q
newborn child is in the fairy spells
until il sneezes. In the west Of Eng
land it is said:
"sneeze on Sunday morning fasting,
You'll enjoy your own true love to ever
lasting"
It'll unnecessary, probably, to say that
this superstition does not exist among
Africans, because of their inability To
meeZe.

FAT PEOPLE AND FLUIDS.

Suggestions Which VIII Re Of Value to
Folk. who lie piors Their Obe.i y.
? The question whether water is fatten-
ing or otherwise has been much dis
oussed.
Formerly it wa generally asserted
that the victims of obesity should NOR
tify the flesh and reduce the fat by alb
staining as much rs possible from
liquids and remaining in q continual
state of thirst. Latterly the opposite
has been affirmed, and l am told that a
seduction of weight is one Of the results
by the hot water cure" provided al
ways the water is taken as hot as posi-
bic, painfully hot and in great quanti-
ties.
> Experiments have been made in Paris
by DR.. Debove which controvert both
these doctrines. These experiments in
dictate that, provided the am amount
Of solid food is taken, large quantities
Of water make q man neither thinner
NOR fatter. They were carefully made
on q friend who took weighed quanti-
ties Of food daily, and while these re-
manned equal, doubling the quantity
Of water had no measurable effect on
the weight OF the body.
Still, it b quite possible that the old
theory Of thirst cure and the new theo-
~ Of hot wxter cure may both be cor
rect. Both violate the natural con-
ditions Of health. Scalding hot water,
like tea or coffee, or grog of similar tenn
persture, unquestionably injuries the
teeth, stomach, and other organs con-
cerned in the early stages of digestion
and it is very probable that deficiency
of liquid impedes the latter stages,
whereby the chyme, by the aid of the
digesting fluids, becomes converted
into chyle and blood.
A fat man may easily become thinner
by lnjuring his health. "Banting"
is dangerous, as many who have fairly
tried can prove. The difficult problem
is to reduce the fat without reducing
the strength at the same time. A skill
full trainer will undertake to bring any
man down to his Fighting weight"
i. e., to the best condition for violent
exertion, but as soon Us the discipline
of the trainer is relaxed, the obesity,
when consti .utional, returns, and along
continuance of high training is mur-
derous.
Perhaps he old prescription, keep
your mouth shu and your eyes OPEN"
when followed with judicous limitation,
is the let. Fat less, sleep less, and
walk more are safe injunctions, provided
they are oheyed in moderation.
The fat man who uses malt liquor as
. daily beverage deserves TO he buried
under cross roads at midnight, accord
ing to the ancient modes OF degrading
the wilful perpetrators of felo de se.-

Driving Away Mosquitoes.

Various substances are used to drive
mosquitoes away. In some parts peo-
pie anoint their bodies with fish oil as
aproteetion against them. The Chi
nese are said to be very clever in the
use OF such protective unguents. In
India mosquitoes are smoked out of a
room by burning chips of wood and
incense. A few spl'igs of wormwood
placed about the pillow sometimes pro-
teet the sleeper from their attack. A
correspondent asserts that if piece of
raw meat is hung over the sleeper's
head the mosquitoes will fasten greedily
